You get a +1 for posting an image instead of a twitter link. We should normalize that here.

Crazy good deal for the Cavs. Not sure what's in it for the Hawks. Do they not realize that they don't have their own pick this year?

This is a really good deal for CLE. Those swaps are unlikely to be used as the CLE core is really good and locked up. SRP are SRP and both outgoing guys are nowhere near as good as Hunter.

G - Darius Garland / Donovan Mitchell / Ty Jerome / Craig Porter JR
G - Donovan Mitchell / Max Strus / Sam Merrill / Isaac Okoro
F - De'Andre Hunter / Max Strus / Isaac Okoro / Jaylon Tyson
F - Even Mobley / Dean Wade / De'Andre Hunter / Isaac Okoro
C - Jarrett Allen / Evan Mobley / Tristan Thompson / Dean Wade

That Top-7 is really legit.

I feel Atlanta should have done better. Hunter was balling. CAVS finally got NBA level small forward.

I just don't know how to post Twitter links from the RGM app, so always do pictures haha

Plus i don't have twitter, so sometimes it'll bump new posts way down people's page and i can't view them.

Nice trade for CLE. Niang in particular is useless vs Boston so this is an upgrade for the postseason.

Atlanta can't decide if they go all-in or all-out, if they build or rebuild...

I haven't used the app for a long time, maybe I am stupid and just couldn't find it, but was that thing even have notifications and and ones, I remember it not having it, it was incredibly inadequate I thought. I am old PC master race guy, and I have to use theseterrible phone things of course, but when on phone, I always go through my phone Opera internet browser to check RealGM,

Another underrated thing this trade accomplished, is getting the Cavs under the tax line.

The Cavs literally addressed their biggest need, they're practically a lock for the East Finals now at least

Cavs aren’t effing around. No holes in that starting lineup, legit title threat.

Nope, lacks a lot of features but i was using Tapatalk app before but ads made it so bogged down. So switched over to the RGM app.

I don't own a computer, so everything is done on my phone.

PC is my life basically, but I never had apple product. Ipad is not a PC tho,these things only good for watching something IMO, to me, I need keyboard and mouse more than my own legs.
